This paper introduces a time warping framework to uncover precise spike-time patterns in neural recordings across different systems, revealing both expected and unexpected firing dynamics.

The paper shows that phasic dopamine enhances the distinct encoding and perceived salience of stimuli in mice by inducing plasticity in neural populations.

The paper shows that odor concentration discrimination is independent of sniff frequency, and a fluid dynamics model explains variability in MT cell responses, enabling sniff-invariant coding.

The paper identifies a subset of mitral/tufted cells in the olfactory bulb that represent odor concentration changes, enhancing temporal contrast and aiding in navigational decisions.
